A solution has a higher vapor pressure than a pure solvent. This is why salt water boils faster than pure water.

What is the name of the pressure that must be exerted on a solution to prevent the passage of solvent molecules into a solution when the solution and solvent are separated by a semipermeable membrane?

Osmosis.


Is sugar solution is affected by pressure?

No, anything in solution is hardly chemically affected by pressure as the liquid (solvent with solute) is hardly compressible.


How does the addition of solute affect freezing and boiling point and vapor pressure on a solvent?

A non-volatile solute affects increases osmotic pressure. This is a colligative property. There will be a higher osmotic pressure required to prevent the solvent from flowing into the solution because the solvent has a higher chemical potential without solute in it.


Why is vapor pressure of solution of glucose in water lower than that of water?

vapour pressure of a solution containing non volatile solute if a non volatile solute is added to volatile solvent the vapour pressure of the solution is lower than the vapour pressure of pure component glucose is non volatile and water is volatile The surface of a pure solvent is populated only by solvent molecules therefore its easier for them to escape . but when glucose is present only solvent molecules volatile They alone can escape to build up the vapor pressure of the solution by Vijay Iyer


Which solution will have more gas dissolved in it?

The solubility of a gas in a solvent is directly proportional to the partial pressure of that gas above the solvent.


A gas's solubility is best in a liquid solvent when the solution is under what pressure?

high


Alcaligenes faecalis osmatic pressure hypotonic or hypertonic or isotonic?

Hypotonic is a solution that has more solute than solvent while hypertonic is a solution which contains more solvent than solute. Isotonic is a solution where in both solute and solvent are equal in amount.


List three factors that determine the rate of formation of a solution?

- temperature - pressure - stirring - the granulation of the solute - the nature of the solvent - the addition of other substances - the volume of the solvent (and the ratio solute/solvent) - etc.


What is the difference between solution and concentrared solution?

A solution is a solute dissolved in a solvent. A concentrated solution is all the solute that be dissolved in a solvent at normal temperature. A super-concentrated solution is all the solute that can be dissolved in a solution after mixing in the solute during high temperature / pressure. The concentration after cooling to normal temperature / pressure is greater than a regular concentrated solution.


What percentage of the solution is dissolved substances?

This is the concentration of a solute in a solvent at a given temperature and pressure.


What are three factors that affect solubility?
